“If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! 🌟 From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in great hands, and that feeling only grew while I was away. I got updates, adorable photos, and it was so clear my pup was happy, loved, and treated like family. Coming home to a relaxed, happy dog says everything! Thank you for taking such incredible care and giving me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again, and I highly recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and genuinely amazing with dogs. You’re the best! 🐾❤️”

“Xionella was an angel. Our original sitter cancelled last minute and she was so quick to help us out. She's the only sitter who offered to meet at a dog park so our fur babies could warm up to her before we dropped them off. She was even kind enough to send us updates, photos, and video chat! I loved that she took them to the dog park, was extremely patient and understanding, and careful when administering our senior pup's meds and safety care. Will be back for future playdates with Groot!”

She is incredibly responsive, always quick to answer any questions, and it’s clear that both she and her husband truly care about Penny.

I've left Marcelo a couple of times with other sitters and every single time, when was time to pick him up, he seemed thrilled and relieved to see me. But not this time, not with Katie, he actually seemed sad for leaving her house LOL! Again, thank you so much Katie for giving him (and his mama) such a great time and positive experience. Our family definitely recommends Katie's services!”

“Irene was amazing! She updated us frequently with pictures and videos, messaged with any questions and was able to stay overnight for us. I felt completely comfortable leaving our cat with her for over a week. She was very flexible when our travel plans changed and responsive to our messages. She was initially supposed to watch our senior dog and our cat, but when our plans for our dog changed she was adaptable and still willing to watch our cat. I would feel good leaving a senior or special needs dog or other pet with her, she's knowledgeable on taking care of animals and medical topics (like medication), you can tell she loves animals and truly has a passion for them. She left our apartment clean and tidy for us to come back to and was always so kind when speaking with us. I could tell our cat loved her and enjoyed her being around while we were gone”

About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is the personalized, attentive care I provide, tailored to each cat’s unique personality and needs. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes in their environment, so I focus on creating a calm, comfortable, and stress-free experience while you’re away. Having grown up in a home with cats and through my experience as a vet assistant, I’m confident caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens who need guidance and stimulation to senior cats who may require extra patience and specialized attention. I carefully monitor details like feeding routines, litter box habits, and any medications or health needs. Most importantly, I treat every cat like my own so you can feel confident they’re safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I have worked in a full service veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.

About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days. Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training. Then, I go on a walk every day on my lunch and often again when I log off for the day. I’d love for your fur babe to tag along! I have two fenced in yards full of sun and plenty of shade. I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred. I have fresh well water and a walking trail around our property. I can also crate your dog or offer them a bed if they need. Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!

About: Animal lover and experienced dog owner with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I care for every pet as if they were my own and provide plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. Happy to send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. 😊 I work from home, so I’m around most of the day. Pet care fits easily into my routine since I already plan my day around my own dog. Your pet would get lots of attention, care, and a consistent routine while they’re with me. At my home, pets have a calm, safe space with a fenced yard for play and plenty of room inside, including extra space if they need a quiet area. I’m home most of the day, so they get lots of attention and care.I also have a friendly dog, and I always make sure introductions are done slowly and comfortably. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel as comfortable as possible.

About: As far back as I can remember I’ve owned or cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, hamsters you name it and I’ve probably cared for it. I love dogs the most and currently own three. Training them, caring for them, playing with them are my passions. I can bathe, trim nails, give medications, train them, walk them properly, and integrate them into packs when requested. I work from home M-F and have flexibility with my hours. I like to travel and I know the cost of putting my dogs up in boarding or day care facilities. We've decided to reduce our travel for now to save up money. I am happy to help out where needed. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. We have a fenced in yard the dogs can run and play in. We also have 2 large dog crates and one small dog crate we keep in case the dogs want/need to be isolated. When we are home our dogs are able to play inside and outside. We have parks close by and take our dogs on walks 2-3 times a day. Your pet would either walk with them or separately depending on his/her ability. We play fetch, we do commands, we can run them or play in water if it’s hot. We love dog parks and shaded walking trails as well. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.. I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home. We have dog beds for them to lie on. We have a big yard and a pool.

“Karen and her family have become our dog-sitters of choice whenever we go out of town. We have a 12 year-old, 80-pound lab mix, and he always has a great time with the Butlers. The inside of their home is set up like a luxury penthouse for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, simultaneously; while the grassy, fenced yard gives them plenty of room to frolic and enjoy the fresh air several times a day. Karen is attentive, communicates regularly, accommodating, and most important, loving of all things furry. And she is very fairly priced, especially considering the level of treatment we receive. I will definitely continue to give her my business (it has removed all the stress of looking for boarding when we go out of town), and would recommend her in a heartbeat. Just be sure to book early, she fills up fast, and for good reason.”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of volunteering at a boarding facility for dogs, which has been a fantastic experience. I really enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and finding out what they like. This helps me tailor my approach to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. I’m experienced in giving baths, trimming nails, and administering medications, & handling temperament appropriately. which has taught me a lot about keeping dogs healthy and content. Playing with dogs is one of my favorite parts of the job. It’s a great way for me to burn off some energy while giving the dogs the exercise they need. I always make sure they have plenty of water during and after playtime. I’m keen on following what each dog enjoys, so any insights you can share about your dog’s preferences would be really helpful. I look forward to making sure your dog feels well-cared for and has a great time! NOTE: The requests that I decline are SPAM requests, I am always available at the times I set on my calendar. Thank you pet parents :) I have a part time online job that I do at nights and it’s not demanding or distracting so I can put it off for however many days I’d like and get back to it later. I own a snake so if anyone ever needs reptile boarding or care let me know I’d be happy to provide my services :). (my snake is always kept in her cage while caring for pets you do not have to worry there will be no contact between your animals and my snake:) If you are big on needing a fence, I have an invisible fence in my back yard with a shock collar if he goes past the lines for my family’s dog, if you’d prefer that let me know bc i hate that they have it for my family’s dog shock collars are wrong. I can easily crate your dog if you’d like that at night when boarding, I just ask bring your own crate. I can also let your dog and my family’s dog (neutered male black lab) play if you’d like. Bring specific food for your dog if you can/want I love accommodating & if you have any further questions just reach out :).

About: At 28 Years Old, I have nearly always had a dog living with me. 8 dogs have been apart of my life in the past and currently 4 reside in our large loving home. Nearly every single one of my dogs have been rescued and cared for, where I try my best to change my own routine to better fit their needs rather than trying to change them to fit my own. In the past years I have boarded relatives' dogs at my own home and would like to continue helping dog parents with any dog care they might need. Because I've had so many dogs in my life, I have had to experience both the beginning and end of their lives. I especially enjoy giving extra care to senior dogs to make sure they are most comfortable in the golden age of their lives. I am working only part time so I have plenty of time to give your dogs as little or as much attention as you need. My schedule is extremely flexible. Weekends or Weekdays are perfect for me. My home sits on a hilly and forested 3 acres, with fenced in portions as well as a long circular driveway perfect for walks! In the fenced area, there is a pool perfect for any water loving dog in the summer! There is also an enclosed run of chickens that are unbothered by any rambunctious and curious dogs. Currently we have 4 dogs, one an outdoor Rottweiler dog that is all too happy to play with another dog, but with her own separated fenced in area. We have 4 indoor dogs, 2 Rat Terriers and 2 Chihuahua. All of them have shown friendly tendencies to unfamiliar dogs of similar size. They have had mixed feelings over larger dogs and I know that not all dogs enjoy the company of others. Should your own dog be more comfortable being alone and dislike other dogs, our house is set up in a way that your own dog can have their own private space away from my dogs and still get whatever attention is needed while still allowing my own dogs ample space.

I'm a marine biologist, so I work offshore often. My schedule has me at sea for 3-6 weeks and then home for a few weeks where I'm fully available to look after your fur babies! I'll be sure to keep my availability updated so you know when I'm around to help out. You know your animals and what they need to be happy and thrive, so I'll do my best to always make sure they're cared for in the way you prefer.

“I was a first time Rover user, due to boarding at a local pet daycare not working out. I have two in tact opposite gender fur babies, who have never been cared for by anyone but their in home family….us. My family and I went on a 5 day vacation and needed to have them walked 3x per day. Due to the turnaround time, the walker needed to be booked within 48 hours. Being a novice, I thought I would need to cancel my family’s vacation. Cheyenne accepted my booking and was such a gem! Cheyenne went above and beyond during the 5 days she was booked to walk my two fur babies. She was so kind to keep with their walk times to the minute. She was never late and always on time. My two fur babies took to her immediately, which to me was the best feeling as a fur parent. She even taught me how to use the Rover App! She sent pictures as a part of their walk report card. I know Cheyenne will now be our go to, anytime we are needing a qualified and loving sitter! Thank you so much Cheyenne again for taking our booking. 🥰”

About: I’ve grown up with animals for pretty much my whole life, and have always loved having them around! In the last few years, I’ve been living alone and touring for work, so I can’t morally have a cat or dog of my own. I have a crested gecko and a california king snake (named Minkie and Burger) that keep to themselves, and honestly most of the time they are completely still or have hidden themselves in some foliage, so they’ve never been much interest to dogs or cats that have been in my house. Half of the time I work from home, either mixing or making string arrangements for albums. If I am working at a studio or running sound at a venue, I’m able to take a break to let out anyone who needs to be let out, but ideally would just schedule myself for days where I’m already working from home. Ideally I’d be able to be around them as much as possible! I’m a bit of a homebody when I get the chance, so I’d make sure they’re the center of attention :)

About: I’m the person who actually reads the instructions. I have more than 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m especially comfortable with medium and large dogs and currently accept walking clients up to 70 pounds. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of the fact that every household does things a little differently. If you tell me your dog eats from a certain bowl, waits at a certain door, prefers a particular route, or has a weird little routine that makes no sense to anyone but them — I’m going to follow it. I’ll also keep you updated with clear notes and photos so you’re not left wondering how things went. I’m not a trainer or medical-care provider, and I don’t administer medications. What I do offer is consistency, patience, careful attention, and reliable care from someone who genuinely enjoys being around dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already spend time each day walking and caring for dogs. I’m available for scheduled walks and drop-in visits during the day and can be flexible when bookings are planned in advance. I especially enjoy building a predictable routine with repeat clients, so recurring weekday walks or regular drop-ins are a great fit for me. I’m also happy to accommodate occasional vacation or one-time visits when my schedule allows. I care for pets in their own home by following their established routine as closely as possible. I pay attention to feeding instructions, potty routines, leash preferences, household rules, favorite toys, and any specific notes you leave for me. I take safety seriously, including securely closing doors and gates, checking leashes and harnesses before walks, and being mindful of the pet’s behavior and surroundings. I also respect your home and belongings and leave things as I found them. During each visit, I’ll provide attentive care, companionship, and clear updates with photos so you know how your pet is doing. I currently provide walks and drop-in visits only and do not administer medications.

About: I have been a pet parent since I was 11 years old and have been a pet sitter since the age of 13. I have cared for pets of neighbors and friends including dogs, cats, chickens and small animals. It always is a pleasure to ensure pets are well taken care of and experience little to no stress while their pawrents are away. I am currently a full time graduate student working a typical 9-5 with some flexibility. I am free most mornings and evenings on weekdays. I can be free during “lunch time” to care for your pets as well. I am also free most weekends. I will ensure the safety of your pets when going outside for walks or during their time inside by being detail orientated and meticulous. I will make sure leashes and collars are secure before going on a walk. I will also double check all water, food, toys etc. before ever leaving your pet.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up in a home full of both cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and having pets of my own has taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to give them the extra love and attention they deserve. I recently said goodbye to my 13-year-old Labrador Retriever, my best friend, but not long after, I rescued a scrawny feral kitten who is now absolutely thriving and living his best life. I also worked as a veterinary technician assistant for a year, where I gained hands-on experience supporting veterinarians and learning how to properly care for animals of all ages and needs. This experience taught me how to be attentive, detail-oriented, and confident in handling a variety of situations. Whether it’s keeping up with routines, providing playtime and enrichment, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I treat every pet like my own. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Alongside my commitment to Rover, I also attend school at the University of Georgia as a part-time student which requires a few hours of on-campus attendance. That said, I maintain a flexible schedule throughout the week and am commonly available on weekends. I’m more than happy to accommodate your routine and ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and exercise they deserve when you’re away! While I don’t have a large yard, my neighborhood offers plenty of safe walking trails and a nearby community dog park, giving your pet great opportunities to stay active, happy, and well-exercised.

About: Animals have always had my heart. I truly believe every pet deserves to be spoiled with love, kindness, and the best care possible. I have an elderly dog of my own and have raised several puppies, so I understand the extra patience and care that both senior dogs and little ones need. I'll treat your furry family member like they're my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable from the moment we meet. Also, I am a runner. I love to run and if any of your dogs need extra exercise I would love to get one of my runs done with your dog! I am a college student looking for work that I love. Caring for pets doesn’t even feel like working. I will fit in as much as I can as my schedule allows! For sitting or drop-ins, I like to ask as many questions as possible and maybe meet the pet beforehand so that they feel comfortable.

About: Hi I’m Imani ,I currently work as a vet assistant so I’m very familiar and comfortable around all types of animals. I’m very passionate about this and I am ready to take on the job and be responsible to watch your pet. I make my own schedule every week so I am available to work at any time of the week depending on how you schedule it. my house has very little furniture so it’s not dangerous for anyone’s pet. My neighborhood is very friendly when it comes onto animals so there’s no problem walking them..

It was clear Tucker was well cared for and happy. We really appreciated her communication and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Berkeley was immediately excited when he arrived to stay with Annette, despite being such an anxious dog. There were a few other dogs for him to play with and a great fenced in yard to run around in. They even took a trip to the dog park. I’m thankful I found Annette to provide such a safe and loving place for him to stay while we were away!”

About: I have always had a soft spot in my heart for dogs. I have carried this love into adulthood and I enjoy having them in my life. When your four-legged family member is with us they will be treated as one of the family. They will be doted upon and they will be constantly engaged, touched, and talked to. We go for walks in our 1-acre fenced backyard, which facilitates safe rewarding exploration and discovery. We allow the visitors to play and interact with our loving and friendly standard poodles who are great role models to each other and to visiting pooches. Even though your baby will be on their doggie Vaca, We will still use every opportunity to encourage learning, good manners, and good behavior by giving treats and positive reinforcement throughout the day. Stability, engagement, routine, and structure makes a happy dog and we aim to make sure that every four-legged friend who lodges with us, is happy and never wants to leave. Our resident babies eat twice per day and are allowed out for potty breaks three times per day. If it is a rainy day we do indoor activities in our 35x40 temperature controlled dog suite and we even watch a little "Dog TV" We have a great time, rain or shine! Sleeping arrangements will depend on what your baby is comfortable with but we do not allow our pets on the furniture or in our beds (at least when daddy is around). We have kennels but we allow the dogs to sleep anywhere they want to in the dog suite. I am a retired nurse and I am always home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs in my day. We have a huge fenced in backyard where all the dogs enjoy their time outdoors. We also have plenty of equipment in the yard for their enjoyment.

“Javan was a lifesaver for sure. He accepted our last-minute booking during Spring Break and took great care of our older dog, Max, including giving him his daily meds. He kept us updated with pics and videos, which we really appreciated. Max was so comfortable at Javan’s house, he wasn’t ready to leave haha. We highly recommend Javan and will definitely book again!”
